Turquoise, Onyx Brooch, Tim & Linda Caviness, Kingfisher Jewelry

Southwest art and colors inspired Linda and Tim Caviness to begin designing and fabricating contemporary jewelry in 2000 after Tim completed his silversmith apprenticeship in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Encouraged by friends and future customers, they established Kingfisher Jewelry.

This Century Art Gallery in Williamsburg was the choice for Tim's first show and inauguration of Kingfisher Jewelry in November, 2001. Linda and Tim work together to design and fabricate unique sterling silver jewelry using their designs to enhance natural stones, pearls and hand-blown glass. They have participated in Stockley Gardens Art Show in Norfolk, Williamsburg's Occasion for the Arts, Gallery 38 Show in Richmond and at The Hand Workshop Art Center's Holiday Gift Gallery in Richmond. Their work has also shown at Kinks, Quirks & Caffeine Gallery in Williamsburg, at the Sanderling Inn Resort in Duck, North Carolina and currently at The Gallery on Merchants Square in Williamsburg.

Kingfisher Jewelry works in sterling silver and semi-precious stones to produce pins, pendants, necklaces, earrings and bracelets. The pins, pendants, and earrings are fabricated with semi-precious stones using sterling silver and are designed to enhance the color and matrix of the stones for one-of-a-kind pieces. The bracelets use a sterling silver clasp with sterling silver beads and semi-precious stones on a double black rope to give the customer a wide range of selection in creating their own unique look. Linda designs and fabricates the necklaces with a variety of semi-precious stones, pearls, glass, and resin beads from all over the world combining various textures, colors and shapes to produce a new look for the contemporary woman.
